  1. Krupp armour

    Krupp armour was a type of steel armour used in the construction of capital ship s starting shortly before the end of the 19th century. It was developed by Germany s Krupp Arms Works in 1893 and quickly replaced Harvey armor Harvey armour as the primary method of protecting naval ships. The initial manufacturing of Krupp armour was very similar to Harveyized armour however, while the Harvey process generally used nickel steel, the Krupp process added as much as 1 chromium to the alloy in order to gain additional hardness . Also, while Harveyized armour was Carburization carburized by heating the steel and physically placing charcoal on its surface for long durations often several weeks , Krupp armour took this basic idea a large step forward. Instead of attempting to inefficiently introduce carbon at the surface from coals, Krupp armour achieved greater depth of carbon carburization cementation by applying carbon bearing gases to the heated steel. Once the carburization process was complete, the metal was then transformed into case hardening face hardened steel by rapidly heating the cemented face, allowing the high heat to penetrate thirty to forty percent of the steel s depth, then quickly quench ing first the Superheating superheated then both sides of the steel with powerful jets of either water or Mineral oil oil . Krupp armour was swiftly adopted by the world s major navies ballistic tests showed that 10.2  inches 25.9  cm of Krupp armour offered the same protection as 12  inches 30.4  cm of Harvey armour. By the early 20th century it was in turn rendered obsolete by the development of Krupp cemented armour .

  1. The Arms of Krupp

    The Arms of Krupp 1968 is William Manchester s history of the Krupp dynasty, which owned and ran a dominant armaments manufacturing company in Germany . The company was based in Essen. The book presents very readable descriptions of the behavior of the Krupp family and its firm from the Thirty Years war to the German Empire Kaisers , the Weimar Republic , the Nazis , the American occupation, and finally the Bonn government. The book describes how under each regime except possibly Weimar the family and firm received favorable treatment. Bizarre facets of families members are presented in detail. The innovative social welfare programs for factory workers are starkly contrasted with the treatment of forced laborers ostarbeiters , etc. Criticism Time Magazine gave the book a mixed review saying The result is an often flawed, some times naive but largely fascinating chronicle whose inflated pretensions as a work of real scholarship are punctured by swarms of errors. As a work of history, the book is marred, too, by an overwrought style and an unbecomingly snide use of irony. Manchester is not fond of the Germans, and he caricatures them either as superefficient and slavishly obedient or as a folk barely removed from dwarfs and dragons, blood feuds and bags of tainted gold. ref http www.time.com time magazine article 0,9171,844730 1,00.html Books Blood and Irony . at www.time.com.

    Krupp Cemented Armour Krupp cemented steel , K.C. Armor , or K.C.A. is a further evolved variant of Krupp Armour , developed during the early years of the 20th Century. ref http www.eugeneleeslover.com ARMOR CHAPTER XII A.html ref The process is largely the same with slight changes in the alloy composition in of total carbon 0.35, nickel 3.90, chromium 2.00, manganese .35, silicon .07, phosphorus .025, sulfur .020. K.C.A. still retains the hardened face of Krupp Armour via the application of carbonized gases but also retains a much greater fibrous elasticity on the rear of the plate. This increased elasticity greatly reduced the incidence of spalling and cracking while subject to incoming fire, something highly prized during long engagements. Ballistic testing shows that K.C.A. and Krupp Armour were roughly equal in other respects. ref http www.eugeneleeslover.com ARMOR CHAPTER XII A.html ref References reflist Naval armour Category Naval armour Category Krupp pl Stal Kruppa ru ...   more details
